We claim:

1. In a dynamo-electric machine, including a laminated core member having alternately disposed radial teeth and slots, a plurality of groups or laminations in combination with a series of radially disposed spacers between said groups to provide ventilation, said spacers having air passageways each respectively, each spacer also including a core body supporting part, and

each body supporting part having a side part formed and disposed diagonally to spread the air laterally opposite the nonslotted body of the core.

2. In a dynamo-electric machine a toothed lamination, in combination with a channel bar disposed radially thereon and secured thereto in a rigid and unitary manner, said bar having one end disposed lengthwise of and against a lamination tooth and its other end being split and spread apart and disposed against the hody part of said lamination.
